At Least Fifteen Shot Clock States ...
California, Connecticut, Georgia, Iowa, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, and Wisconsin. And the District of Columbia.

I've officiated both of these teams. The winning team ranked #3, other team #9. Guy coaching losing team has well over 700 wins. Get beat 80-50 or 4-2 and had a wide open 3 at the buzzer to win.

Lots Of Four Second Counts ...
I'm pretty sure that almost everybody, if not everybody, here will totally disagree with me, but I would enjoy watching, or officiating, a game such as this.
But not every night. From the article: ... the absence of a shot clock can be somewhat of an equalizer between two teams with a significant talent disparity. A disciplined team can keep a game close against a team with much better players by slowing it down. Fewer possessions mean fewer opportunities for the better team to show why it’s so much better ... A stall offense can only work if there's nothing in place to prevent it and a trait of good coaching is the ability to maximize the rules to your advantage. Quote:

As the shot clock spreads over the country, there will be fewer and fewer games like this, and eventually such slow-down, stall games will go the way of two-hand set shots, laced basketballs, peach baskets, and chicken wire cages around the perimeter of the court.

State association here has said there is currently no interest in going to a shot clock with two main reasons being cited, staffing and funding.

Tidbits ...
Quote:
… some schools already struggle to find scorekeepers and game-clock operators and that shot-clock operators require a unique skill. “They’re going to have to be a whole lot better than your game-clock operator. The shot-clock operator can’t miss a trick.” … “we would all say the biggest struggle we have on game night is finding personnel, at least right now. And the shot clock operator is very unique. A lot of times you can find somebody to run the scoreboard because it's just the time and score, but for a shot clock, you have to actually know some of the extended rules." Just about anyone with a pulse can operate a game clock. Shot clock? One needs some degree of expertise. Also, the most accurate list of shot clock states that I can come up with at this point in time. California, Connecticut, Georgia, Iowa, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, and Wisconsin. And the District of Columbia. Unsure about Florida and Illinois, maybe optional for some schools and/or tournaments?

Slap In The Face Money Grab ...
We just found out that schools in one of our local conferences involved in this year's postseason conference tournament (the biggest conference in the state) will not be honoring, for the first time ever, our CIAC membership cards for free admission into tournament games.
This money grab will probably be used to fund their new shot clocks next year.

As will Connecticut, and possibly a few other states.
